A couple of hundred I would have said, so there are plenty to go through!
Neither Pontiac-based nor enzodesigns.

The proportions make it seem like a 911. Especially the windscreen inclination.

Actually it's not RHD (I have other pictures of it where it's easier to see it's LHD) and not British.

Yes, it's Skoda S110R Coupé based.
I don't have any more details about it so I'll give you the point and move it to solved, and I'll post the other photos I have of it.
